Caught in the Act: Stories You Can't Unhear!

🎉 Tales from the Workplace: Handsy Coworkers, Cringe Icebreakers & College Fair Chaos!

Welcome back to “Well That Happened”! Today, we're spilling the tea ☕ on workplace antics and diving into stories that are equal parts hilarious, awkward, and downright shocking. From inappropriate coworkers to cringeworthy corporate icebreakers, plus some wild college recruiting adventures, this post has all the drama and laughs you need. Let’s get into it! 👏

🙌 Handsy Coworkers: Flattery or Flat-Out Creepy?

We kick things off with a personal tale from Rob about working in a department investigating sexual harassment. 😬 The irony? His boss — the so-called "golden boy" — was the exact type of person Rob was supposed to be investigating. From unsolicited shoulder rubs to knee pats that no one asked for, the boss crossed professional boundaries left and right.

The cherry on top? One unsettling moment when the boss patted Rob’s knee and commented on his legs. Rob admits he felt both flattered and totally weirded out. Talk about mixed signals! 😅

🤝 The Dreaded Corporate Icebreaker: Please, No More Adjectives!

You know them. You hate them. Corporate icebreakers. 😩 Rob and Kiersten share their most cringe-inducing icebreaker moments, from forced fun facts to the painful “adjective that matches your name” game. (Seriously, who comes up with these?!)

Kiersten hilariously laments her struggle to find an adjective that starts with a “K” — spoiler: she settled on “Kooky” one too many times. Meanwhile, Rob’s go-to fun fact about being a very short-term pilot always seems to derail conversations. ✈️😂

And let’s not forget the infamous moment when Rob joked about handing out sandwiches to coma patients... 🫠 Yeah, it didn’t go over well.

🍽️ Reddit Gold: The Restaurant Breakup That Broke Everyone

Next, Rob shares a jaw-dropping Reddit story about a server who witnessed a next-level awkward breakup at a restaurant. Imagine this: a wife calmly announces to her husband that she’s been having an affair. 😱 But the plot twist? The affair was with his father. Yup, "Darryl" turned out to be dear old dad.

The server, stuck in the middle of the chaos, described it best: “My soul literally left my body.” We don’t blame them. Who needs Netflix when Reddit serves drama like this? 🍿

🎓 College Fairs: Tattoos, Tequila & Recruiting Chaos

Ah, the glory days of college recruiting. 🏫 Rob and Kiersten take us back to their early careers, traveling to college fairs filled with eager students and slightly less eager guidance counselors. But the real fun? The after-hours. 😏

Between wild parties and hilarious encounters, one memory stands out: Rob’s colleague “Jill” making some very bold moves. Jill not only ignored the fact that Rob wasn’t into women but also made things extra awkward by revealing a tattoo in a very inappropriate place during a casual poolside chat. 🫣

Their takeaway? College fairs weren’t just about recruiting students — they were about surviving the characters you traveled with.

🎉 Wrapping Up: Cheers to the Memories!

As Rob and Kiersten reminisce, they remind us that every awkward encounter and cringe-worthy moment shaped who they are today. From navigating uncomfortable boundaries to surviving bizarre icebreakers, these tales are proof that work (and life) is never boring.
